"We're going to get butchered if we all stay in one group. Infantry! To the left!"

Infantry moved to the left while the Rocket Troop and drones continued their advance.

Line Infantrymen opened fire on the far turret, expecting the ninja to be hiding there.

No ninja were hit, but they did score a hit on the turret. Sparks began to fly out of the damaged area.

Warhead's forces advanced. One of the Axe Acolytes made it to a turret and began to open fire on the closest enemy, the Irregulars. Alien gun man opened fire at the Irregulars and Avalonian army.

The first Avalonian soldier fell after getting hit in the chest.

The irregular commander ducked while a large blast from a turret pounded into his ranks. The blast ripped through two men before it dissipated. Another man fell from an alien gun.

The Warhead sphincter sacrificed his movement to change weapons. He carefully aimed a shot at the Avalonian General....

... But missed, killing a soldier instead.

Ghost Division, impressed by the militia charge, ran after them to give some support.

Beta Group 5 and Myrna advanced. Two men fired at Warhead's army, but didn't score any hits. The other two began to digging in the snow.

Within minutes, they built a bunker sturdy enough to repel blasts.

Ninja initiates knocked more pillars over and began to pack them with the snow. The makeshift bunker provided more than enough cover to cloak the Ninja Master and ninja working on the lock.

The key remained in the left keyhole while the ninja pressed the Orange, Green, Yellow, then Red buttons. The lock hummed, but then stopped. Surprisingly, the Orange and Green buttons remained lit. Progress was being made.

Two ninja that landed in the trench made a run for the turrets with plans of their own.

The remaining ninja did what he could to repair the turret shot by Avalonian soldiers. He managed to stop the machine from sparking and stay hidden from Avalonian view.

Two new militia men arrived! (Irregulars receive two reinforcements per turn.)

The Militia commander ordered his spearmen to cut the snow into 2x2 squares and use them as shields.

The irregulars obeyed their fearless commander and received +1 armor to all rolls! The riflemen advanced and opened fire on Warhead's forces.

Their volley caused enough firepower to blast through a Spear Acolyte's shield and damage a turret enough...

... To cause it to explode! All within 4" of the turret were incinerated. Two alien gunmen died as a result.

Only charred remains of the powerful war machine were left.

Delighted by their successful attack, the irregulars cheered.

Until a hover sled carrying a squad of battle droids descended and let two droids off. The two droids opened fire on the celebrating fools.

Two militia men were shot.

The hover sled continued to advance until its movement points were used up. The remaining droids on the sled shot at the militia men...

... While the droid commander's squad formed a line on the cliff and let off a volley at the irregulars.

Many good Avalonians died. The commander's experience in war allowed him to dodge a second time.

When a comrade's head rolled to their feet, a few of the spearmen began to question their devotion to the cause.

They dropped their weapons and routed.

The last droid squad moved to reinforce Warhead's right flank.

OVERVIEW

Please submit your orders for the next turn.

All groups will receive reinforcements (2 men) next turn, except for the secret faction.

I think he means his deserters. And it's a pity those guys got obliterated, I think in total they killed two of the opposing forces . Anyway, the Avalonians and Prussians should get the job done. Better hurry though, It's going to take about w turn or two for the door to open up!
